Bonfire Night

Throughout England, towns and villages....

• light huge bonfires.
• let off magnificent fireworks.
• burn an effigy (a homemade model of a man, like a scarecrow)
• celebrate the fact the Parliament and James I were not blown sky high by Guy Fawkes.

PENNY FOR THE GUY

During the days before Bonfire Night, children used to take their home-made guys out on the street and ask for "a penny for the Guy" for fireworks. 

"Remember, remember,
the fifth of November,
Gunpowder, treason and plot.
We see no reason why
Gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot!"
